on the assessors forms, she states I have no cognitive limiting illness, but one of the symptoms of Fibromyalgia is brain fog. My brain fog happens, with fatigue, bad night sleep, when I am under stress or when in intense pain. Am I wrong to state that Fibromyalgia is a cognitive limiting illness.

It begs the question then, if researchers are still in their infancy in understanding fibromyalgia, why do PIP assessors think they know anything more?

Marvellous how Assessors can bend the rule though. They say it hey are not interested in your illnesses, but the way your life is affected. I say I experience brain fog and she says I do not have a cognitive limiting illness ,When the going gets tough, the tough get going.

Many thanks, I will have a god read tomorrow, after what I hope is a good nights sleep. I want to be ready to put up a good argument for the case manager to allow me an award.When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
